Happy Blogiversary! If you'll leave a comment on this post, in one week I'll draw a name & contact the winner.

This is a special copyright 1948 knitting booklet; Scandinavian Mittens by Kajsa Lindqvist. It contains patterns for all of the designs pictured on the cover - seven patterns for adults, two for children, & two for babies. Complete with graphs and Illustrations.

How can you bear to give it away?!!!!! If you can bear to then please count me in! I love knitting mittens....in fact it is a disease which starts as soon as we get the first frost and doesn't end 'til spring!

Happy Bloganniversary! These mittens look like so much fun.Vintage patterns can be so very much fun. My favorite mitten pattern is from a vintage booklet that I have lost parts of, but still have my favorite mitten pattern intact!

I seriously was looking at the Brownie mittens this AM on Ravelry, which come from this book. They were knit by "Colorful knitter". I love knitting mittens. What a nice giveaway for your blogiversary.I'd love to be entered. I'm Marji on Ravelry.

Hi! came here from the rav pattern page for brownie mittens. I would so love to knit these because I have a little dog who looks a lot like the one in the chart! And other gorgeous mittens too, what bounty!!! Does the name "brownie mittens" have anything to do with girl scout brownies (I was one once, of course), or is it just because they are pictured in brown yarn?In any case, happy happy 2nd blogiversary 2nd blogiversary :)

Hi, I found your posting in the "I make mittens" group at ravelry. Thanks for this wonderful offer!1. I love to make mittens2. I love vintage3. I like patterned mittens, they're more of a challenge.3. I'm practising twined mittens right now!

Auntsugar here , Your web page seems to change every so often? The mittens are great! is it in Norwegian,or swedish ,or english? DOesn't really matter they usually have good charts and that's the most important part.

Whew I finally figured out how to get here! I would love to win that mitten booklet. :) I've been wanting to make some colourwork mittens and I see some beautiful ones in the patterns. :) samm @ravelry

I too saw this post on Ravelry and thought (1) it was worth a shot to post a comment - the book looks lovely (2) You're running a pretty interesting blog - off to check the 'Baby Knits' post next and (3) Who ever does wind up with the book is a very lucky winner!

Found this a few days late through Ravelry (I'm "canstash" over there), but Happy Blogiversary! I collect vintage patterns from yard sales and by word of mouth from all my friends. That is one beautiful book.

Wow wow wow! What a great book! I could really use some more mittens...I come from Australia but have been living in Arctic Finland for a year or so. Brrr, baby it's cold here! The patterns look lovely, and congratulations on your blog-day.

Oh, that looks fabulous! I'm trying to decide what I'm going to make for my first pair as soon as I'm done with this pair of socks. Very nice book and you're lovely to give it away. Happy blogiversary! moiraeknittoo AT gmail dot com
